I can't find the source for that claim, as far as the 100 years of nuclear energy goes... And I guess you're right about Nuclear in general, considering our population grows at an exponential rate. It's unrealistic to believe that one energy source could solve all of our problems  . But the fact that the nuclear waste we've stowed before is still useable in a refined form still stands.As for hybrid/hydrogen cars, my main conclusion from that was from my science teacher. He has described hybrid cars to us before, and only mentioned hydrogen acting as a fuel carrier once or twice, just stating that the cars ran on water. I know this isn't true, if they ran on water they'd never need gasoline. However, hydrogen powered cars literally are cars that run on water, right? That's what I'm thinking of. Exactly how do hydrogen fuel cells work? |

| OOC: Ah, that reminds me.... Which Sonic Adventure game are you referring to when you talk about the Chao? SA 1, 2, or Director's cut? They've all got some slightly different variations on what the Chao are. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Originally posted by Ziffski Advantage: Nintendo. Alright, I'm probably gonna crack and get a PSP eventually anyway, but if there are all these hardware problems, what does that say about the system? It really seems like it was rushed, if they didn't make the hardware as foolproof as they could. |

| OOC: Come on, Seph. You wanna fight? Let's go. Janus: "I need this, man! Let me take him on! Let all of us take him on!" The place? User Grey's office, just down the hall from the door leading to Sim Battle Arena A in one direction, and right outside the Acmlm's Board cafeteria. It WAS a converted Janitor's closet, after all. After the attack of the NNPC bots during the Tournament, there was a little bit of peace for all of the fighters, save for one... A few fighters had been getting into existential quarrels with the one called "Seph". UGrey had tried to keep things under control, but it didn't seem to be helping. Finally, he decided to settle things the only way he knew how... UGrey: "You want him? Fine, just remember to keep things civil. I don't want my own characters to be getting into fights about rules and regulations, it sets a bad example and damages my own reputation as the enforcer of the rules around here." The whole roster was here: Detective Grey, Red, Green, Blue, and even Kalar and Dark Grey had joined Janus in User Grey's office to discuss the problem. There needed to be a confrontation, and that was how it was to go. "Take the keys to Sim Battle Arena A. Remember to follow the rules." He then looked back and forth between Dark Grey, Kalar, and Janus. "You three aren't restricted by any kind of story in this fight, so you can unleash your power as you wish. Use what skills you have, but try not to hurt anyone accidentally. I'm expecting a lot of spectators for this fight. People need to see this going on." He leaned back in his chair, as the two unknown battlers spoke up. Kalar: "What power are you talking about, here? I'm not aware..." Dark Grey: "I know what he's saying, man. If it comes to you having to fight, then you'll get it eventually." UGrey: "Just go. I'll be watching the fight. It's sanctioned under the standard SB arena rules. If any of you gets in trouble, I'll save you from serious harm." All: "Understood." A few moments later, Janus burst through the doors of SB Arena A to the roaring cheers of a pumped audience, followed by Team User Grey. This was it, the fight was on! |

The trademark explosion rocked the ground around him, and User Grey appeared in front of Seph. He's dressed in some rather odd attire today: A turtleneck composed of cloth strips buckled around his limbs, a pair of dark green hiking boots, and black punk-rock pants. Unusual for him, but he spoke as though nothing were wrong... |
UGrey: "Seph, you're wrong. I make the rules here. This thread won't be closed until it's over..." He steps aside, allowing Janus and his crew forward. "But this isn't my battle. I didn't want it. Janus did." The entire User Grey crew came alongside the white-haired warrior to confront Seph... Janus: "That's right. However, this isn't just my fight. It's all of ours. Everyone in this stadium came here to see the conflict between us resolved once and for all..." Janus looked at User Grey. User Grey looked at Janus with a stare of disapproval. Kalar, Dark Grey, the Detective, and the Agents all stepped backward as User Grey stood to the side of Seph and Janus. He snapped his fingers, and disappeared. UGrey: "Keep it civil. Remember that. No personal attacks, no cheap shots, and keep the rules in mind. This will not turn ugly, or else I will step in..." Janus: "Perfect." A loud klaxon sounded, signaling the start of the battle! Janus jumped backward and into the air, flipping a few times as Satchel turned from duffel bag to deadly hammer, and slammed downward on Seph's location with a ground-splitting earthquake blow! "Let's see what you can REALLY do!"

OOC: Ah, alright... I know we're all roleplaying here, but really, Kirb's got the right idea... I want this to be a battle, not a flame-fest. Keep it civil, right right? Don't take this too far or else I'll have to forcefully eject you as a spectator. This is just a quick reminder to be nice. Respect comes from respect, and do unto others, and the like. |

Originally posted by Sion Hate to say it, Sion, but I don't think you can. They're there for good, as far as I know. Which is a shame, because I've got a gutload of them (literally!). They can be alleviated by loosening up a little though. I've noticed that the fat that caused my stomach to expand in the first place is finally starting to disappear, and with it are going the stretch marks. They're still there, just not as noticeable. I realized how out of shape I am last night, when I played DDR for two rounds in a row and nearly dropped to the pad, hyperventilating. Drummania is less physically intensive.

Janus: "Oh, come on... This is nothing." |
Janus drew his hammer and leaped into the air toward the ceiling of the room! "Earthquaker!!!" Janus whirled around in the air a few times, and rocketed toward the ground, slamming Satchel directly on the Chimera's head with enough force to split an office building in two! Janus (thinking): "There's plenty of creatures ten times worse than this guy in the lower levels... We should be able to make short work of him!"

Janus: "What the hell? Level 90?" |
Janus backed away from the Chimera a few steps... "That's... That's impossible, we just got in here..." (thinking) "Then we're gonna have to REALLY bust him up!" Janus pulled Satchel open and whipped out a multitude of discs... Something really powerful was needed. Something... His eyes locked on a burnt disc he made a long time ago... Only four megs were on it, but somehow he knew they'd be more than enough... "Come on, Rudra no Hirou! Satchel's Draw!!!" His eyes scanned the file in its entirety, and the coding for the game was integrated into his brain, unlocking a new dimension of insane ability. If physical attacks weren't working, then he might as well try something else! He pointed Satchel at the Chimera, and closed his eyes, as wind flowed around him and archaic symbols appeared in the ground at his feet. "Now let's see if this works... Ignosico!!!" From Satchel's head burst a fireball, spreading outward and growing as it left its firing point, colliding with the Chimera and adding even more clouds of smoke to the room.

A huge crowd of NPC bots faced Kyle, Team Nimue, and Team Grey as more and more bots just kept on coming! Though their attacks were fierce, and bots died off by the hundreds, for every one that was killed another two appeared in its place! |
Suddenly, there was an announcement over the loudspeakers... User Grey had managed to teleport back to his office and secure the intercom! UGrey: "Alright, guys... I've got some information for you. There are a pair of unidentified fighters in Sim Battle Arena D, I want whoever's free to meet up in front of it, they may have some information on the situation. Janus, this means you. We'll be able to gather some allies there." Red folded his hands and closed his eyes, and suddenly the NPC bots blocking the way to SB Arena C were boxed by several walls of fire! He turned around and looked over to Kyle... Red: "You, you're the new guy, right? Quick, cast that spell and get rid of some of these bots for us! I can't hold this wall for long!" As Grey and Green continued to pick off bots left and right, Red began to sweat... That battle with Jarukoth had taken it out of him, and he still wasn't entirely healed. Kyle needed to hurry! ------------------------------------------------ Janus was frozen in fear at the sight of Sky-Bot... He had watched some of UGrey's older Sim Battle tapes and knew full well who Sky-Bot was. Janus: "You... You're not who I think you are, are you?" It couldn't be. This was Sky-Bot, a recreation of the main character of Skydude. "He was...." Janus backed up a few steps. If it was true, then there was only one thing to do. Run. Run fast. Run away. "The..." But what would that say about User Grey? Janus had to face him, it was only right. "......The original Sim Battle Mod." Even if it WAS Skydude, it was wrong for him to think he could just give up easily... Janus stood erect and kept his hammer handy. This wasn't looking good.

User Grey suddenly teleported into the battle arena, and smacked Elite Seph in the face! |
User Grey: "Wrong, Seph! There IS a rule against attacking someone verbally!" He then points to the gigantic billboard above the stands that read "Acmlm's Board Rules and FAQ", more specifically to the DON'T section of the fourth entry! "See? No flaming. I'd say telling the audience that you're one of my "bitch victims" counts as an insult. Don't worry, that shouldn't have hurt. But watch your smack talk! Ha, get it? Smack.... Yeah, I'm out of here. Watch yourself, Janus. Assuming he's not been disrupted with sheer awe by what I just did, he's probably charging a hell of a lot of energy right now!" User Grey exploded, and was gone. Janus sweatdropped. "Ah, that's no good... I should probably think up some inkling of strategy right about now... Robot... EMP... Maybe I should...." All this thinking is bound to leave Janus WIDE open.....

Red: "Perfect! Phoenix Rusher!!!" |
Red threw his arms to his sides, and blazed through the opening Kyle managed to make in the bots, burning a path into Sim Battle Arena C! Green and the Detective followed through, with Green forming a tunnel-shaped electrical field around the area where Red burned through, preventing the NPCs from accessing that area and allowing free passage into the area where Blue was bound to be held. Sure enough, there the icy warrior was, hung from the ceiling of the arena by his feet, and bound in ropes, unconscious. Around him sat a ring of NNPCs, chanting as he was lowered slowly toward a pot of boiling water with flames flickering beneath it. Detective Grey raised an eyebrow. Grey: "That's.... That's kinda freaky." Red: "Aren't they robots? I doubt they need to eat." Grey: "User Grey made them as human as he could... Obviously they'd form a civilization eventually. Jason, get ready!" Green nodded, and looked about ready to take off. Grey drew his gun, took careful aim, and fired a single bullet through the rope suspending Blue over the pot, as Green zoomed at the speed of sound toward him, jumping into the air and catching the falling Agent in his arms, only to land directly in the middle of a crowd of NPCs! He looked intently at Red and pointed to his mouth... Red: "I see.... Everyone, cover your ears and hit the deck! NOW!" Red and Grey dove to the ground as Green inhaled, covered Blue's ears, and.... Green: "GET BACK!!!!!!!!!!" The word "back" echoed loudly as Green's sonic boom voice burst outward from his position, sending NPC bots flying everywhere in a deadly explosion of sound that bounced off the walls of the arena, causing the weaker NPCs around the area to explode from the fierce vibrations of his amplified voice! A mute once again, Green silently made his way back to the group, with Blue rather rudely awakened in his arms... Blue: "Oh, what was that.... Jason did not say something, did he?" As he was laid on the ground by Green at Red's feet, Blue came to his senses and saw the hundreds of destroyed bots around him, which were quickly being replaced... "Ah, he did! Good show, Jason!" Red: "There's no time for talk, we've got to keep destroying these bots! Come on!" A renewed hail of bullets whizzed around the team as the NPC-bots renewed their assault, and filled Arena C once again! "It'll be impossible to take this place by force, we've got to figure something else out... Let's get out of here!" Red, Green, Blue, and Grey rushed past Kyle and Team Nimue, and into the marble corridors of the SB Arena Annex! User Grey's voice rang out over the intercom... UGrey: "Evan! Check up on Arena D! Bring as many allies as you can there, we need to regroup and find the assembly machine that's making these things!" ----------------------------------- Janus was glad to see even a bunshin of Jarukoth nearby, but he knew it still wouldn't be enough. Janus: "You'd don't want to know, but I'll give you a hint... Those tentacles aren't there for nothing! If you can communicate with the real Jarukoth, tell him that Sim Battle Arena A has a healing room down the hall from it, if he, Ada, and Shino need to recover they can go there, but it might be too dangerous if it's infested with bots. Tell them to only go if they feel they need to. As for Sky...." Janus ran towards Sky-bot, brandishing his hammer and swinging it hard! ".....We'll both take him on!"

Janus shifted his own weight to the side, and used the momentum from his first swing to twist his body out of the way of Sky-bot's stab, only to bring himself into a full spin and slam his hammer into Sky-bot's back! |
When the attack followed through, be it hit or miss Janus caught his hand on the ground and handsprung into a standing position, turning to face Sky-bot and wait for a response...

Joke's on you, guys. His birthday's actually tomorrow... Or today, depending... |
And now, a tribute:  This is Schwa, having just beaten the crap out of Janus in our very first battle.  This is a shot from what I believe he's been very inspired by. It's Psi Warrior, a commodore 64 game! See, he rides a crystal disc just like Schwa does.  This is a Chao from rosemaryb2's elfwood gallery. Schwa likes Chaos. I think. Schwa is a ROM hacker. This is a shot from his latest hack project. He is a very talented ROM hacker. I played his Megaman 4 hack, and it was excellent.  This is a moonbeam.  This is a stormbird. Those of you who do not know the significance of those last two pictures need not worry. They're important.  Lastly, that's the image for the greek letter Psi. This is the end of my tribute to Schwa, one of the bar none coolest members of this board. Happy birthday, buddy!
